Permit me to tell you about a place called Detroit, a dead battery

Tough, gritty, left for dead

Yet among vacant lots and decaying buildings

Amassed bulldozers and cranes to begin a new

Shiny glass buildings on the riverfront

Art deco towers prominent and proud

Greektown, Mexicantown, theatre and casinos

A city of sport

And cars with its' engine still roaring

A machine filled with determination

To refill its historic name

And go full throttle ahead
